Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 Core Concepts

Solid Modeling

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 allows you to easily create 3D solid models, enabling you to visualize parts and assemblies with a realistic appearance. Based on material properties such as density, these models have mass, volume, surface area and other physical properties such as a center ofgravity.

Feature Based

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 models are constructed using a series of features. Each feature builds upon the previous feature, creating the model one feature at a time. Individually each feature can be simple, butcollectively can form complex parts and assemblies.

Parametric

Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire 3.0 models are driven using dimension values. If a dimension of a feature is changed, that solid feature will update. This change will then automatically propagate through the remaining features inthe model, updating the entire part.

Parent/Child Relationships

Parent/Child relationships provide a powerful way to capture your "design intent" into a model. Parent/Child relationships are naturally created between features during the modeling process. When creating a feature, existing features that arereferenced become parents to the new feature. Also, if the parent features are updated, the child features will automatically update accordingly

Associative & Model Centric

If a part model is changed in Pro/E, any assemblies or drawings that reference that model will automatically update. This behavior is known as Associativity and also works in reverse- if a model dimension in a drawing is updated, the part model and the assembly it is used in will update.
